A Practical Religion.

We want a religion that softens the
step and tunes the voice to melody
and checks the impatient exclamation
and harsh rebuke; religion that is
polite, deferential to superiors, courte-
Gus to interiors and considerable to
friends; a religion that goes into the
family and keeps the husband from
being cross when the dinner is late
and keeps the wife from fretting when
the husband tracks the newly washed
floor with his muddy boots and makes
the husband mindful of the scraper and
the door-mat; keeps the mother patient
when the baby is fretful and amuses
the children as well as instructs them;
cares for the servants, besides paying
them promptly; projects the honey
moon into the harvest and makes
the happy home like the eastern fig
tree, bearing in its bosom at once the
beauty of its tender blossoms and the
glory of the ripened fruit. We want a
religion that shall interpose between
the ruts and gullies and rocks of the
highway of life and the sensitive
souls that are travelling over them

by NELLIE NJ. THOMPSON, PEMBROKE, ~ H.
Commit thy way unto the Lord. trus
also in him. "-IsAIAH xxx: 81 XIII: 16.
Sometimes in life we seem to reach
place where crossroads meet
And pause, not knowing which to take,
Waiting with weary feet
We pray, and hear word divine
In answer to our need:
90 This Is the way your feet must tread"
e. Go forward" 81 will lead"
We take the first step plainly shown,
Asking for clearer sight:
THAT which see not teach thou me-
Our heart-cry for the light
II brings me strength. Each one is led
who trusts, tolls on and prays;
lie whose bruised feet halowed earth's road
Is with us all the days"
Shadows oerhang the untried path;
lie still says; Follow me-"
His presence makes the darkness light;
We who were blind now see
" Commit thy way unto the Lord"
That is faiths guide and stay,
The secret of the Christians peace"
Which cannot pass away.

A GREAT battle is continually going
on in the human system. The demon
of impure blood strives to gain victory
over the constitution, to ruin health, to
drag victims to the grave. A good re-
liable medicine like Hoods Sarsaparilla
is the weapon with which to defend
ones self, drive the desperate enemy
from the field and restore peace and
bodily health for many years. Try this
peculiar medicine.

THE WONDER

Is becoming universal as to how such an inn
mense sale could be created in Lowell for
HOOPS SARsAPARILLA. But, my friend, if
you could stand behind our counter a week
and hear what those say who are using it,
the reason would appear as clear as the
MONDAY sun. The real curative power of
HOOPS SARsAPARILLA demonstrates itself
in every case where our directions are faith
fully regarded. We would that we might
get before the people fractional part of the
confidence that is expressed to us every day
in this medicine by those who have carefully
noted without prejudice) its effects upon the
blood and through that upon the whole sys-
TEN, stimulating all the functions of the
body to perform the duties nature requires
of them. Try bottle and satisfy yourself.

MEssRs. C. |. HOOP * Co.: Gentlemen =
About one year ago my daughter commenced
taking your Sarsaparilla. At that time sac
had very little appetite; could take no long
walks and her face was badly broken out
with ahumor. She was low-spirited; troubled
with cold hands and feet; her blood seemed
caused us great anxiety. After taking one
bottle of your Sarsaparilla she began to i'm
prove; and she now has good appetite and
can take much longer walks. Her humor is
nothing compared with what it was enc year
ago. She is in better spirits, is not troubled
with cold hands and feet as previously. And
/ attribute this improvement in her condi-
tion largely TO your Sarsaparilla. She has
taken six bottles, and intends to continue its
use. Twas inclined to oppose the trial of it
